kubota BX-22
santa\'s bringing me a canopy

i just ordered a canopy for my bx-22 from my local kubota dealer. my christmas present to myself.

this winter the bx is not being garaged due to the fact that my wifes '72 bmw 3.0cs now takes its spot.

so this spring its time to build a shed for the bx and attachments etc.....

i was thinking that after installing the canopy i could drape a tarp or something over it to somewhat
protect it from the elements.
anyone have any other suggestions or helpful hints.....
anyone make a set of side curtains for an enclosure that would attach to the canopy???????

ive got over 200 hours on the machine and no problems yet........except for leaving the
brake on all the time. you would think after the first dozen times i would learn but i still do it alot.
bad design on kubota's part and bad memory on my part.
oh well.
thanks
scott

Re: santa\'s bringing me a canopy

You might try one of those canvas "pop-up" shelters. I have seen a lot of them here in Maine. Guess that's because they cheap but seem to hold up to the snow.

As far as the brake, I agree, it is a poor design on 'Bota's part. Course the fact that I am over 60 might have something to do with me forgetting to release the brake. I don't think a warning light would work because once I set the rpm's I very rarely look to the dash. Up here they call the old folks disease CRS...."cant' remember s***".

BMW vs. Bota.
You need to get the priorities straight.
The Bota gets the garage spot while the BMW sits outside. After all, the BMW is just a car

I have a neighbor that uses one of those portable garages that he purchased from Harbor Freight. He keeps a classic car in it and is pleased with its construction. Maybe you shou;d consider one for the BMW er I mean Bota. For the link click here
